Chicago Bears Abandoned Tracy Porter

[Apr 10 2017 GMT]

Chicago Bears lost a veteran cornerback. They announced the abandonment of Tracy Porter. This layoffs allowed the Bears to save $ 3.6 million in salary.

Porter played for the Bears for two seasons, and he signed a three-year's $ 12 million contract with the team last year, and he had just fulfilled his one-year contract. The 30-year-old cornerback played 30 games in the past two seasons, but last season the knee injury led him ups and downs. Last season he scored 48 tackles and two steals.

This year's offseason, the team strengthened the corner position of the lineup. They signed Prince Amukamara and Marcus Cooper as their starters. Porter has made great contributions to the New Orleans Saints won the Super Bowl Champion. Now he may have to wait after the draft to find the next home to continue his career.
